The wife of a man who was brought back to life by fellow golfers after he suffered a massive heart attack on the course has said she can never thank them enough.

Mick Carter had gone for a game of golf with his son-in-law when he suffered a near fatal heart attack at Haverhill golf club on Saturday, August 19.

Garry Kerr was playing golf with his son when the drama unfolded and immediately sprung into action, starting to give CPR while seven-year-old junior golfing champion Ellis - ignoring his dad's instruction to stay put - sprinted to the club house for help.

Mick's wife Ann has now spoken of her gratitude.

Mrs Carter said: "It's impossible to find a way to to thank him.

"Thanks to Garry Mick is still here to tell the tale.

"He just literally keeled over flat on his face, my son-in-law realised in a panic that he wasn't breathing. He shouted for help."
